Thumbs up to Orange Pippin Trees! Order came in on Friday- my day off- 3 golden comet crabs and 1 blue pearmain apple all on dwarf stock. Good root structure on all 4 and nicer trees from the roots up on all three crabs than I was hoping for. The blue pearmain was a little less stout, but...

I liked the CONCEPT of leading from behind, being a proportionally smaller player in terms of resources, boots on the ground, etc,etc, and allowing our allies to be a proportionally more accountable for what is necessary around the globe. The problem is we did just that- decided to lead from...

Appreciate Tap posting the Tick protection thread- lots of good advice and lots of stories on what ticks can do to folks. thought I'd share my 13 year old sons story and what we've learned over the past 7 months: end of August son got bronchitis, antibiotic knocked it out of him pretty quick...

Here is QDMA's percentages, (Not from QDMA website). Wasn't around for the closing of the message board or the reasons why, though what folks have said here seems plausable and prolly true and reason enough to take issue with them. However, it does seem the talk about the folks at the top...
